"Are you guys creating a club?"
The senior sister in charge of club registration opened her mouth slightly, looking at Chen Shu and the other two.
"Yeah, is that not allowed?"
Chen Shu shrugged. Was there any need to be so surprised?
"You... you can! As long as there are three initial members!"
The girl nodded. New students usually joined existing clubs, and the three of them actually thought of creating their own!
"Right, fill in the basic club information. I need to report it to the school."
She handed a form to the three of them.
"Club Name... Type..."
Chen Shu took the form and started writing enthusiastically, muttering to himself:
"Hooligan Society... mainly responsible for upholding justice..."
"??"
The girl's mouth widened, and she was a little dumbfounded.
She asked somewhat doubtfully, "Are you students of our school?"
"Yes, why?"
"This name..."
The girl seemed to be in a difficult position. She hadn't looked at the rest of the content, but just the club name was a big problem!
You three are filling out club information, not a guide to prison!
The girl shook her head. If such a name could pass, it would be utterly ridiculous.
"I will upload it to the school. If it's approved, you'll need to pay ten academic credits or one hundred thousand Huaxia coins per semester..."
Before she could finish speaking, Chen Shu's writing hand froze.
Pay academic credits?!
"Building a club requires academic credits?!"
The senior sister nodded and said, "The school will assign you a club activity location and basic technological facilities. Of course, some academic credits will be required."
Chen Shu silently put away his pen and said,
"I don't think whether we pay credits or not matters. The key is that the name doesn't sound good. What do you guys think?"
Chen Shu looked to the side, but A Liang and Wang Jue were already gone.
Damn it! They ran off so quickly?!
"Senior sister, maybe next time!"
Chen Shu directly dropped the paper in his hand and found the two people in the crowd.
"Holy crap, you two ran so fast as soon as you heard about credits?!"
His mouth twitched, and he cursed his carelessness.
Why was it that no one he knew was generous? Could it be that birds of a feather flock together?
Wang Jue earnestly explained,
"It's not about paying credits or not. I think the club name will definitely not pass the review!"
"Agreed!"
A Liang nodded and said, "A mere ten credits, do you really think we can't afford it?"
"..."
Chen Shu shook his head. Just then, he saw a group of people lining up ahead.
He asked, "What club is this? It's so popular?"
"The school's Beast Taming Association!"
Wang Jue said, "It's the school's top club. Its main purpose is to exchange experiences or find people to form teams to go to异空间 (Yì kōngjiān - Outer Dimensions)!"
Chen Shu said, "Isn't that just a social platform?"
"What do you know!"
A Liang said, "The Huaxia Academy is already selected from geniuses nationwide. Now that the Beast Taming Association is selecting again, the value is even higher!"
Chen Shu raised his eyebrows and said, "It's just screening and filtering, screening and then filtering again?"
"Yes, roughly that's the meaning. Do you know who is inside now?"
Chen Shu touched his chin and said, "After so many rounds of filtering, they sound pretty much like scum..."
"???"
The two looked at him in unison. What kind of bizarre train of thought was this?
Wang Jue said, "Yu Jiang, who came to cause trouble yesterday, seems to be from the Beast Taming Association."
"See? I told you they're all scum!"
Chen Shu spread his hands, saying with a serious expression.
"Keep your voice down, my brother..."
You're cursing right in front of their doorstep, that's a bit too much!
The three of them had no intention of joining and prepared to turn and leave.
Just then, options appeared in Chen Shu's eyes.
[Option One: Participate in the Beast Taming Association's interview and showcase your astonishing talent! Completion reward: Alluring Potion *1]
[Option Two: Use Liu Feng's name to establish the 'Hooligan Society'! Completion reward: Gain the title 'Cremation Enthusiast', wearing effect: After being cremated, your ashes can be perfectly preserved!]
[Option Three: Participate in the interviews of other clubs. Completion reward: 'Thick Earth Potion' proficiency increased to the Mastery level!]
Chen Shu was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect this to trigger an option.
Moreover, the content of the second option was utterly ridiculous. Such a perverted title!
The key was that its effect was somewhat heaven-defying, actually guaranteeing the perfection of ashes!
"The second one already hints at death, so I definitely can't choose it. As for the third or the first..."
Chen Shu touched his chin. The Thick Earth Potion was a reward from the system for helping Xu Xiaoyu's family sign a contract. It was a potion that enhanced earth attribute, but unfortunately, there was no opportunity to configure it.
However, the Mastery level didn't have much use. Potion proficiency was divided into Beginner, Mastery, Grandmaster, and Sage levels.
Except for the Sage level, which was out of reach, the first three were easy to achieve.
"Let's choose the first one. Alluring Potion, it should be a potion with special effects."
Chen Shu made his decision and said, "I'm going to interview for the Beast Taming Association!"
"?"
The two turned to look at him and said, "Didn't you say everyone inside is scum?"
"Therefore, the Southern Jiang Hooligans are needed to correct the bad atmosphere inside!"
Chen Shu said righteously and walked forward with large strides, "I want to join!"
The other freshmen, seeing it was Chen Shu, immediately made way.
This guy was the only Black Iron level in the grade, exuding more pressure than four SS-class geniuses.
The senior brother recruiting members looked strangely and handed him a promotional flyer for the Beast Taming Association.
"This afternoon at five o'clock, Beast Taming Hall No. 9, interview at combat arena 012?"
A Liang and Wang Jue also received a flyer and asked, "Are you really going to interview?"
Chen Shu shrugged and said, "Let's try. It doesn't matter if I get in or not."
The three browsed other clubs for a while longer, and time arrived at five o'clock.
In Beast Taming Hall No. 9, dozens of people were already waiting in advance.
"Fang Qingchen and the others are all here?"
Chen Shu saw the geniuses of the grade at a glance.
Except for Yu Yi, the other three SS-class geniuses were all in the queue.
The Beast Taming Association was indeed the top club in the school, and basically, the most talented batch of people would enter it.
The continuous influx of fresh blood kept the club enduring.
Upon seeing Chen Shu and the other two arrive, everyone's expressions immediately became unnatural, and even their discussions quieted down a bit.
"Everyone, don't be nervous, don't be nervous!"
Chen Shu smiled, appearing approachable.
"You seem a bit different!"
A senior brother at the entrance of the combat arena narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "You go first for the interview!"
"En?"
Chen Shu remained unfazed, sensing a trace of hostility from the other party.
Could it be because of Yu Jiang?
He didn't pay too much attention. He just needed to be interviewed, and it didn't matter whether he joined the Beast Taming Association or not.
"Senior brother, we were the first ones here..."
Someone said softly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in their tone.
"It's okay, he'll be quick."
The boy from the Beast Taming Association smiled and directly entered combat arena 012 with Chen Shu.
A group of people watched the closed door and started discussing incessantly.
"Could it be that geniuses have special treatment?"
"What genius? He just got lucky to become Black Iron level early. Once I become Black Iron, I'll definitely beat him!"
"I think so too. Most likely, the Beast Taming Association won't accept him!"
...
Chen Shu entered the combat arena. There was no one inside, only a small wooden table and two stools.
"Please sit!"
The boy smiled and said, "Give a simple self-introduction!"
"Could my premonition be wrong?"
Chen Shu raised his eyebrows and said calmly, "I am Chen Shu, with the courtesy name Yin Bi, known as the Southern Jiang Hooligan, honorary deeds..."
